Mel Gibson sounds like an abuser to us! They're always innocent or justified for their violent behavior because you pissed them off and, well, you shouldn't have pissed them off!
Gibson has finally spoken out since his 2010 PR nightmare where he was recorded telling his ex-girlfriend and baby mama Oksana Grigorieva that he hopes that she gets raped by a pack of n*ggers before calling her a slut for showing cleavage on the red carpet. Prince charming.

Mel beat Oksana, Whoopi Goldberg blamed Oksana and said that Mel isn't racist, and now the 56 year-old is finally speaking out on his own behalf.
Mel told Deadline.com: "Who anticipates being recorded? Who could anticipate such a personal betrayal?" True, but how many people say such vile things while under the most stressful situations? Oops, I forgot, Mel is only human.
Mel is also gentle and kind: "I've never treated anyone badly or in a discriminatory way based on their gender, race, religion or sexuality -- period. I don't blame some people for thinking that though, from the garbage they heard on those leaked tapes, which have been edited. You have to put it all in the proper context of being in an irrationally heated discussion at the height of a breakdown, trying to get out of a really unhealthy relationship. It's one terribly awful moment in time, said to one person, in the span of one day and doesn't represent what I truly believe or how I've treated people my entire life."
On his future: "I don't care if I don't act anymore. The whole experience has been most unfortunate. And so it's not without all the downside. I could easily not act again. It's not a problem. I'm going to do something now because I want to do it and because it's fun."
We need to stop rewarding abusive men in movies, sports, and all entertainment industries, or any industry for that matter. This self-righteous, violent bigot hasn't changed and does not deserve a second chance.
